Protective Effect of Ghrelin on Isoniazid-induced Liver Injury in Rat
Ghrelin (GHR) is a peptide that has protective effects on many tissues injury. It has anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant effects. Isoniazid (INH) a widely used antituberculosis drug, has hepatotoxic side effect. The aim of this study was to evaluate the protective role of ghrelin in liver toxicity d...
